Application filed May 13,1903.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that l, ltueoiirn Runner, c.v l citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at Omaha, in the county of Douglas and btnte clNebraska, have invented. it certain new and. useful Composition ofMatter, cl which the following is e specification.

This invention relates to o composition of 1n utter intended forprotecting wearing sur- 1 'l'nces or surfaces exposed to the weather ori exposed to wet or dzunpness. 1

The principal object of the invention is to I rovide a, composition oimatter which may I he applied, when in e plastic or semi piesticcondition upon wood, stone, gloss or other material, which will readilyharden without 1 shrinkage, and will remain reliably adhesive to thesurface of the object whcreon it is l placed or spread, and which mayhavens I one of its ingredients, c substance which will adequatelyresist irictionel Wear or erosion, Will resist injury from exposure tosun heat, and will, protect Wood from the action of tire.

Another object of the invention is the provision of a composition ofmatter having the properties described, which will be cdmpnrctivelyinexpensive.

Thepurpose of the imrcntion is to provide a covering for the exteriorWalls of a, h: rilding, l as a substitute .l'cr point; also for coveringthe roofs of buildings who ther of tin or other metal or Wood; else toform the filler for seams between glass plates where it is desir' ablethat the material shall adhere to n Pit ofthe gless surloce, oroti'ierwise and to form on exterior cooting for boats, water veshere theg property oi remaining adhesive Wilt rher upplied to form a thickcovering or use-e i thin costing upon the ohiect to he prote' Thecomposition oi inc ter consists 1 following iugrcd'cnts: send, 20 pquick lime ports in w"; ports in bulk, 0Xl(l ol' ii there-r ly, andtmixed with linseed o to plastic co ency. The composition thus prov"applied to Wood, glass or metal to costing ofany desired thickness. Thequick lime operates as a drier. he oxid of iced Specification of LeWater.

and oxid of iron cause the particles to adhere, nml the sand which formsthe principal port of the compound, resists ordinary trictionel weer;the substance when dry has a density equal to that of sandstone, andwhen dry adheres lirinly to the object upon which it is spread.

Two ports, in bulk, of white lead may be substituted for the oxid oflend, if desired, and the result will be substantiallythe same; also l.have at times omit-ted the'oxid of iron, but prefer its use Where thecomposition is to be used as a protection against rain or For coveringboats, and in other cases where a lightweight coverin is desired, I haveused equal parts, inbul of sand and coal ash to make 20 parts, and mixedthe some with one part oxid of lead and two parts oxid of iron, theseparts being in bulk, the mess then to be mixed with linseed oil to aplastic consistency, v

To form a coating somewhat lighter in weight, I employ send, coal ashand hard wood pulp, each of-equal amounts in bulk to make 20 parts, oxidof lead 1 part, quick lime 1 part, oxid of iron 2 parts; these are mixedin the usual manner with linseed oil to form a compound of plasticconsistcncv. While this compound Varies only slightly from those alremlydescribed, it is lighter and more useful for covering the bottoms ofhosts and various ligl1t-Weight articles Whose surfaces ore to beexposed to the water.

lie-ring fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire tosecure by Letters Patent is,--

l. The herein described composition of in bulk, sand 20 parts;

LE 2 parts; end of iron 2 parts; the
